All this mucking about with harnesses and context is really just Markdown engineering.

I’m using GL.inet to support family on an old intel MacBook Air in Europe, from Asia. Best purchase ever. I set the quality to low so that the latency isn’t too bad. I basically want to be able to help them with reading email, using their b

Small nit: uuid7 is 128 bits (16 bytes) by definition. So there’s no need to convert it to binary. It already is. Unless you’re working with a stringified version of the uuid7.

Radical idea, hear me out…instead of establishing a base in Argentina “motivated by concerns about the future of the United States”, he could take a tiny portion of his wealth and actually contribute to building the right future for the Uni

Beautifully expressed. Using AI to remove even more opportunities for human contact is a tragedy.

If I understand the article correctly, the Italians and the Dutch use the same hand gestures to explain to children the concepts of Pizza and Marijuana respectively.

There might be something interesting here. The AI writing means I’ll never know.

It sucks. The dumb diagrams as well - do we really need two boxes and an arrow to repeat what was described in a simple line of text just before?

If only that girl/boy in high school would have gone out with these people we wouldn’t have to deal with this nonsense.

This is a very elegant way of dealing with slop, whilst still reaping the benefits of smart people using AI to do useful things.

Realize that this is all about assembling snippets of text into a prompt. When context becomes too big quality goes down. Now go play with your kid.

The future of manufacturing is automation, not jobs. Wouldn’t it make more sense to nurture multiple suppliers for critical items?

Ugh. This is so revealing of how they truly think. It’s not about helping you discover great artists, or to celebrate great music. Instead it’s about “monthly active users”, “content minutes”, and who knows what other MBA metrics. A clear

As nonsense as this is, you should always have an answer at the ready for why you’re uniquely interested in them. If they don’t ask, volunteer it. If their interviewing results in a handful of qualified candidates, guess which one they’re

This sounds less like an interview and more like they’re gathering data to train their mental health model!

This defies belief. “I wanted to scratch a technical itch. My local AI completed the job in 30 minutes. I never pressed Start to see if it works, but I did write a blog post about it…”

That’s been my theory - there’s some low hanging fruit in every environment where AI knocks it out of the park. Then complex brownfield reality (coupled with non-technical factors) rears its head and the stunning productivity gains are nowh
